Legal Tenants V/s Occupants : What's the Difference?

Overview:

Many landlords use the terms “tenant” and “occupant” interchangeably, but each has a different implication from a rental standpoint. However, knowing the difference between a tenant and an occupant is important. Knowing the definitions of each can help rental owners and managers understand their legal rights and obligations while dealing with tenants and occupants. For instance, tenants sign a legally binding contract with the landlord and are responsible for paying rent and following lease terms. However, an occupant is simply authorized to live in a rental with the landlord’s permission. As such, they sometimes have different responsibilities or protections than tenants.
 

For property owners and managers, grasping these disparities is pivotal for effective rule enforcement and agreement adherence. Likewise, tenants and occupants will gain clarity on their respective obligations within a rental home.
 

In this webinar, as we unravel the intricate dynamics, we'll emphasize the crucial role of a meticulous property management team armed with a robust screening process. Discover the keys to securing responsible tenants who will cherish and maintain your property throughout the entire tenancy. This Webinar will also explore tenant rights and responsibilities as well as Occupant rights and responsibilities.
